Fred Funk shot a two-under-par round of 70 on Saturday to hold on to the third-round lead at the Regions Tradition.
The 60-year-old is 14-under for the tournament in Alabama and has a one-stroke advantage over Scott Parel in the first of the PGA Tour Champions' five majors.
Defending champion Bernhard Langer, who shot a 66, and Scott McCarron (69), are two shots back.
Funk is seeking his first PGA Tour Champions individual title since 2012 while Langer is bidding to match Jack Nicklaus' record of eight major victories on the 50-and-over circuit
Funk said: "I'm used to Bernhard being on the top.
"I've got to go out and I've got to take care of my business and, wherever it ends up, it ends up. I can't worry about it. If I worry about it, I won't play well."
Funk had opened with rounds of 67 and 65, and he is two-for-two in winning after holding the 54-hole lead at PGA Tour Champions majors.
And each of the past five Regions Tradition winners have come into Sunday with the lead.
"I need to play like I did the first two rounds [on Sunday], that's for sure," Funk added.
Players had a two-tee start early on Saturday because of expected bad weather and will do the same in the final round.
